I get the same error starting up PE 3.4 - three times. I've been using the same flash drive for about a year but the problem started when I went to my new laptop a few weeks ago. I hit continue to resume startup and everything seems to be fine but where are these errors coming from? I checked the paths in the Directories option and they are all relative paths pointing to the correct folders. I tried using absolute paths but that didn't work either. Any other suggestions?
